sorry...i need another photo...

I wasn't sure who he was till I saw his picture. He's in lots of series, and he's really good. He also played in the W Files too.

He also played in FM701 (comedy). the workers didn't know who he was and they make fun of him, then they later found out that he was the boss of that company!

[1swt_babiee]

so how do u tell the difference between an aussie and a brit? I dun see any way you can do it?

yah, i guess besides the accent it's hard to tell
but i always thought that british guys are tall (haha prince william) handsome
and well aussie, i dunno?!

[cherrie]

wait, joe jr is half? i thought he's a pure chinese!
joe jr has been in numerous series also. but i remember him most in the w files as the one who plays the piano and sings that awful song ('how do i do, just as you say....')

yep...uncle joe is half Filipino I think....unless if my parents are wrong....
but anyways, he is indeed half-Chinese

[cherrie]

filipino?!?! really hehe, never thought of that

[bubcas]

If anyone of you remembers Joe Jr. singing an oldie in AR2. He plays Eileen's uncle. He also stars in Game of Deceit as Jessica's father. I tot Joe Jr is half Portugese.....

[cherrie]

whoa, so uncle joe's half filipino? so how come he's in hk? it's really very hard for me to imagine he's from our country

[cmu_wasabi]

well back in the days, a lot of the lounges, clubs, and what not had mostly filipino singers and musicians playing there. For one it's because foreign songs were big and Chinese songs were not really popular. So I think one of his parents must have been a performer at a lounge in HK...not too sure. I'll ask my parents when I go home.

[cherrie]

thanks in advance wasabi!

I remember Joe Jr. also played a judge on Justice Sung II where the character claimed he was a mix of everything.

Also, Ho Kwok Wing is in the more recent To Catch the Uncatchable if no one has stated that yet.

[cherrie]

yup, he's in to catch the uncatchable. but i can't remember his role there.

[Radken]

He's the owner of the extremely valuable necklace in that murder case involving the gorgeous model.

[kidd]

There is also another actor who always play the foreign ambassadors and police heads in TVB series. From his look, I think he is older than Ho Kwok Wing. He has dark hair. I didn't see him in recent TVB dramas anymore. Can anyone tell me his name?

Sorry for the vague description.
